Rälsbussar från Umeå och närbesläktade fordon

Railbus services in Sweden date to the early decades of the 20th century, but it was not until the years after the 2nd World War that the railbus effectively replaced traditional trains on financially weaker branch lines. Railbus services peaked in the 1960-70's with initially the "Hilding Carlsson"-bus, built in Umeå in northern Sweden.
